Today London Higher has formally launched a pan-London collaboration tasked with tackling student mental health in London. As an initiative of our London Health and Wellbeing Network, all of our member institutions have been invited to partner with us to develop a proposal to achieve a step-change in student mental health in the Capital.

This important initiative is both timely and important, enabling London universities the opportunity to create joined up connectivity between HEIs and NHS partners, which remains a critical issue. We are delighted to be partnering with Jisc on this initiative who will be providing technical support and the development of a prototype toolkit for use by London’s HEIs.
